Original design background:
Based on the popular character 'Masterchief' from the video game Halo and the profession of the wearer as a doctor, this signature was ideated in-house from ground up. The goal was to make a very meaningful watch design with a touch of simplicity. The breathtaking results are shown:
The Strap:
It is designed with stones Dark Blue Tiger Eyes, Blue Phantom Quartz, Rectangular Labrodorite and Mesh Jasper. A pattern taken from a spaceship's interior from the game is engraved on both sides of the strap. The engravings are design with the initials and date of importance to the wearer. The butterfly clasp contains a quote from the book, The Little Prince:
"The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart"
The Dial:
Assembled over three plates, the lowest plate (L1) is engraved with normal/hue engraving highlighting the name of the wearer, his profession represented by the Staff of Hermes & engravings related to it. Masterchief is engraved in a portrait orientation with his quote 'We'll make it'. The second plate is a skeleton plate with the motif of the 'Forerunners', an extinct race within the game. Alongside the outer ring are 'letters' from the 'Forerunner language' which spells a special message. And the third plate is the hour marking cut in skeleton format. The piece de resistance is the square water opal at the 12 O'clock mark.
